- a sulfide solid electrolyte material of the present invention is first described.
- the sulfide solid electrolyte material of the present invention may be roughly divided into two embodiments.
- the sulfide solid electrolyte material of the present invention is hereinafter described while divided into a first embodiment and a second embodiment.
- the sulfide solid electrolyte material of a first embodiment is a sulfide solid electrolyte material comprising an ion conductor with an ortho-composition, and Lil, characterized in that the sulfide solid electrolyte material is glass with a glass transition point.
- the first embodiment allows a sulfide solid electrolyte material with high Li ion conductivity by reason of comprising Lil (Lil component) to become rich in Li.
- the sulfide solid electrolyte material of the first embodiment is so high in amorphous nature as has a glass transition point as to allow Li ion conductivity to be improved.
- the first embodiment allows a sulfide solid electrolyte material which has resistance to deterioration (such as oxidative
- amorphous substance An xLiI-75Li 2 S-25P 2 S 5 -based amorphous material (amorphous substance) is described in FIG. 1 of the Non Patent Literature 1.
- This amorphous substance has an ion conductor with an ortho-composition of 75Li 2 S-25P 2 S 5 and Lil.
- an amorphous substance ordinarily signifies an amorphous substance such that periodicity as a crystal is not observed in measuring X-ray diffraction or the like, and the amorphous nature exhibited by an amorphous substance ranges to a degree. Therefore, an amorphous substance with high amorphous nature and an amorphous substance with low amorphous nature exist among amorphous substances.
- Non Patent Literature 1 Even though the synthesis of an amorphous substance by a mechanical milling method is described in Non Patent Literature 1, the details thereof are not clear and not specifically described, so that it is surmised that the mechanical milling method is a general dry-type mechanical milling .
- dry-type mechanical milling does not allow a glassy sulfide solid electrolyte material having a glass transition point. It is probably conceived with regard to dry-type mechanical milling that the reason therefor is that a raw material composition anchors on a wallsurfaceofavesselto be sufficiently amorphized with difficulty .
- the sulfide solid electrolyte material of the first embodiment may be obtained by performing wet-type mechanical milling as described later. In wet-type mechanical milling, a raw material composition may be prevented from anchoring onawall surfaceof avessel andmay be sufficiently amorphized.
- a solid electrolyte material with as high amorphous nature as has a glass transition point is allowed.
- Glass in a strict sense signifies glass such as to be an amorphous substance and have an observable glass transition point.
- the word amorphous is used but the word glass is not used. In the case of comparing glass with an amorphous substance except glass, an index for determining which is higher in Li ion conductivity does not exist generally.
- the sulfide solid electrolyte material of the first embodiment is greatly characterized by being glass with a glass transition point .
- the presence or absence ofaglass transition point may be confirmed by differential thermal analysis (DTA) . It may be determined by X-ray diffraction (XRD) measurement using a CuKa ray that the sulfide solid electrolyte material is an amorphous substance.
- the sulfide solid electrolyte material of the first embodiment is characterized by comprising an ion conductor with an ortho-composition, and Lil.
- the content of the above-mentioned Lil is not particularly limited if it is a ratio for allowing glass with a glass transition point; for example, preferably 34 mol% or less, more preferably 30 mol% or less.
- the content of the above-mentioned Lil is, for example, preferably 1 mol% or more, more preferably 5 mol% or more, and far more preferably 10 mol% or more. The reason therefor is that too small content of the Lil brings a possibility of not contributing to the improvement of Li ion conductivity.
- the above-mentioned ion conductor has an
- ortho generally signifies oxo acid which is the highest in degree of hydration among oxo acids obtained by hydrating the same oxide.
- a crystal composition to which Li 2 S (and Li 2 0) is added most among sulfides is called an ortho-composition.
- L1 3 PS 4 corresponds to an ortho-composition in the Li 2 S-P 2 S 5 system
- L1 3 AIS 3 corresponds to an ortho-composition in the Li 2 S-Al 2 S3 system
- Li 3 BS 3 corresponds to an ortho-composition in the Li 2 S-B 2 S3 system
- Li 4 SiS 4 corresponds to an ortho-composition in the Li 2 S-SiS 2 system
- Li 4 GeS 4 corresponds to an ortho-composition in the Li 2 S-GeS 2 system.
- part of sulfur (S) in the above-mentioned ortho-composition may be substituted with oxygen (0) .
- ortho-composition means including not merely a strict ortho-composition but also a composition in the neighborhood thereof. Specifically, "having an ortho-composition” signifies that an anion structure in an ortho-composition (PS 4 3" structure, SiS 4 4 ⁇ structure, GeS 4 4 ⁇ structure, A1S 3 3" structure and BS 3 3" structure ) is the main component .
- the ratio of an anion structure in an ortho-composition is preferably 60 mol% or more, more preferably 70 mol% or more, far more preferably 80 mol% or more, and particularly preferably 90 mo1% or more with respect to all anion structures in the ion conductor.

- the composition of the above-mentioned ion conductor is not particularly limited, preferably containing Li, X (X is P, Si, Ge, Al or B) , and S.
- X is P, Si, Ge, Al or B
- S The reason therefor is to allow a sulfide solid electrolyte material with high Li ion conductivity.
- the above-mentioned X is particularly preferably P.
- the above-mentioned X may contain the above-mentioned element by two kinds or more.
- the sulfide solid electrolyte material of the first embodiment is preferably obtained by amorphizing a raw material composition containing Li 2 S, sulfide of X (X is P, Si, Ge, Al or B) , and Lil .
- Li 2 S contained in a raw material composition preferably has fewer impurities. The reason therefor is to allow a side reaction to be restrained.
- Examples of a synthesis method for Li 2 S include a method described in Japanese Patent Application Publication No. H07-330312.
- Li 2 S is preferably purified by using a method described in WO2005/040039.

- the above-mentioned sulfide solid electrolyte material does not substantially contain Li 2 S.
- the reason therefor is to allow a sulfide solid electrolyte material with less hydrogen sulfide generation amount.
- Li 2 S reacts with water to generate hydrogen sulfide .
- a larger ratio of Li 2 S contained in a raw material composition survives Li 2 S more easily.
- the above-mentioned sulfide solid electrolyte material does not substantially contain
- cross-linking sulfur The reason therefor is to allow a sulfide solid electrolyte material with less hydrogen sulfide generation amount.
- cross-linking sulfur signifies
- cross-linking sulfur in a compound obtained by a reaction of Li 2 S and sulfide of the above-mentioned X For example, cross-linking sulfur with an S3P-S-PS3 structure obtained by a reaction of Li 2 S and P 2 S 5 corresponds thereto. Such cross-linking sulfur reacts easily with water to easily generate hydrogen sulfide .
- does not substantially contain cross-linking sulfur may be confirmed by measuring Raman spectroscopy. For example, in the case of an Li 2 S-P 2 S 5 -based sulfide solid electrolyte material, a peak of an S3P-S-PS3 structure ordinarily appears at 402 cm "1 .
- the intensity I 402 at 402 cm “1 is preferably smaller than the intensity ⁇ 4 ⁇ at 417 cm “1 . More specifically, the intensity I402 is, for example, preferably 70% or less, more preferably 50% or less, and far more preferably 35% or less with respect to the intensity I41 . Also, with regard to a sulfide solid electrolyte material except Li 2 S-P 2 S 5 -based, "does not substantially contain cross-linking sulfur" may be determined by specifying a unit containing cross-linking sulfur to measure a peak of the unit.
- the case of an Li 2 S-Al 2 S 3 -based sulfide solid electrolyte material and the case of an Li 2 S-B 2 S 3 -based sulfide solid electrolyte material are similar thereto.
- Li 2 S-GeS 2 -based sulfide solid electrolyte material is similar thereto.
- the ratio of Li 2 S to the total of Li 2 S and P 2 S 5 is preferably within a range of 70 mol% to 80 mol%, more preferably within a range of 72 mol% to 78 mol%, and far more preferably within a range of 74 mol% to 76 mol%.
- the case where the above-mentioned rawmaterial composition contains Li 2 S and Al 2 S 3 and the case where the above-mentioned raw material composition contains Li 2 S and B 2 S 3 are similar thereto.
- the ratio of Li 2 S to the total of Li 2 S and SiS 2 is preferably within a range of 62.5 mol% to 70.9 mol% , more preferably within a range of 63 mol% to 70 mol%, and far more preferably within a range of 64 mol% to 68 mol%.
- the case where the above-mentioned raw material composition contains Li 2 S and GeS 2 is similar thereto.
- Examples of the shape of a sulfide solid electrolyte material of the first embodiment include a particulate.

- the above-mentioned sulfide solidelectrolyte material is preferably high in Li ion conductivity, and Li ion conductivity at normal temperature is, for example, preferably 1 x 10 "4 S/cm or more, and more preferably 1 x 10 "3 S/cm or more.
- a sulfide solid electrolyte material of the first embodiment may be used for optional uses in which Li ion conductivity is required. Above all, the above-mentioned sulfide solid electrolyte material is preferably used for a battery. In addition, in the case where the above-mentioned sulfide solid electrolyte material is used for a battery, it may be used for a cathode active material layer (a cathode body) , an anode active material layer (an anode body) or an electrolyte layer .
- the producing method for a sulfide solid electrolyte material of the first embodiment is not particularly limited if it is a method for obtaining the above-mentioned sulfide solid electrolyte material. Examples of the producing method for the
- sulfide solid electrolyte material include a producing method having synthesis step of amorphizing a raw material composition containing Li 2 S, sulfide of X (X is P, Si, Ge, Al or B) , and Lil by wet-type mechanical milling.

In accordance with a rapid spread of information relevant apparatuses and communication apparatuses such as a personal computer, a video camera and a portable telephone inrecent years, the development of a battery to be utilized as a power source thereof has been emphasized. The development of a high-output and high-capacity battery for an electric automobile or a hybrid automobile has been advanced also in the automobile industry. A lithium battery has been presently noticed from the viewpoint of a high energy density among various kinds of batteries.
[0003]
Liquid electrolyte containing a flammable organic solvent is used for a presently commercialized lithium battery, so that the installation of a safety device for restraining temperature rise during a short circuit and the improvement in structure
and material for preventing the short circuit are necessary therefor. On the contrary, a lithium battery all-solidified by replacing the liquid electrolyte with a solid electrolyte layer is conceived to intend the simplification of the safety device and be excellent in production cost and productivity for the reason that the flammable organic solvent is not used in the battery. In addition, a sulfide solid electrolyte material has been known as a solid electrolyte material used for such a solid electrolyte layer.
[0004]
The sulfide solid electrolyte material is so high in Li ion conductivity as to be useful for intending higher output of a battery, and various kinds of research have been conventionally made. For example, in Non Patent Literature 1, an LiI-Li2S-P2S5-based amorphous material obtained by a mechanical milling method is disclosed. In Non Patent Literature 2, an LiI-Li2S-P2S5-based amorphous material obtained by a mechanical milling method is disclosed. In Non Patent Literature 3, it is disclosed that an LiI-Li2S-P2S5-based sulfide solid electrolyte material is used for the anode side and another solid electrolyte material is used for the cathode side.
[0005]
Also, in Patent Literature 1, Li2S-P2S5-based lithium ion conductor crystal glass and a battery using this as a solid electrolyte are disclosed. In Patent Literature 2, in order to restrain a reaction of a cathode active material and a solid electrolyte, a nonaqueous electrolyte battery selecting a
combination of the solid electrolytes for a specific combination is disclosed.

Description of Embodiments
[0028]
A sulfide solid electrolyte material and a lithium solid state battery of the present invention are hereinafter described in detail.
[0029]
A. Sulfide solid electrolyte material
A sulfide solid electrolyte material of the present invention is first described. The sulfide solid electrolyte material of the present invention may be roughly divided into two embodiments. The sulfide solid electrolyte material of the present invention is hereinafter described while divided into a first embodiment and a second embodiment.
[0030]
1. First embodiment
The sulfide solid electrolyte material of a first embodiment is a sulfide solid electrolyte material comprising an ion conductor with an ortho-composition, and Lil, characterized in that the sulfide solid electrolyte material
is glass with a glass transition point.
[0031]
The first embodiment allows a sulfide solid electrolyte material with high Li ion conductivity by reason of comprising Lil (Lil component) to become rich in Li. In addition, the sulfide solid electrolyte material of the first embodiment is so high in amorphous nature as has a glass transition point as to allow Li ion conductivity to be improved. Also, the first embodiment allows a sulfide solid electrolyte material which has resistance to deterioration (such as oxidative
decomposition) for the reason that the above-mentioned ion conductor has an ortho-composition.
[0032]
An xLiI-75Li2S-25P2S5-based amorphous material (amorphous substance) is described in FIG. 1 of the Non Patent Literature 1. This amorphous substance has an ion conductor with an ortho-composition of 75Li2S-25P2S5 and Lil. However, an amorphous substance ordinarily signifies an amorphous substance such that periodicity as a crystal is not observed in measuring X-ray diffraction or the like, and the amorphous nature exhibited by an amorphous substance ranges to a degree. Therefore, an amorphous substance with high amorphous nature and an amorphous substance with low amorphous nature exist among amorphous substances. Here, even though the synthesis of an amorphous substance by a mechanical milling method is described in Non Patent Literature 1, the details thereof are not clear and not specifically described, so that it is surmised that the
mechanical milling method is a general dry-type mechanical milling .
[0033]
As described in the after-mentioned Comparative Example 1-3, dry-type mechanical milling does not allow a glassy sulfide solid electrolyte material having a glass transition point. It is probably conceived with regard to dry-type mechanical milling that the reason therefor is that a raw material composition anchors on a wallsurfaceofavesselto be sufficiently amorphized with difficulty . On the contrary, the sulfide solid electrolyte material of the first embodiment may be obtained by performing wet-type mechanical milling as described later. In wet-type mechanical milling, a raw material composition may be prevented from anchoring onawall surfaceof avessel andmay be sufficiently amorphized. Therefore, a solid electrolyte material with as high amorphous nature as has a glass transition point is allowed. Glass in a strict sense signifies glass such as to be an amorphous substance and have an observable glass transition point. Also, in Non Patent Literature 1, the word amorphous is used but the word glass is not used. In the case of comparing glass with an amorphous substance except glass, an index for determining which is higher in Li ion conductivity does not exist generally.
[0034]
(1) Sulfide solid electrolyte material
The sulfide solid electrolyte material of the first embodiment is greatly characterized by being glass with a glass transition point . The presence or absence ofaglass transition
point may be confirmed by differential thermal analysis (DTA) . It may be determined by X-ray diffraction (XRD) measurement using a CuKa ray that the sulfide solid electrolyte material is an amorphous substance.
[0035]
The sulfide solid electrolyte material of the first embodiment is characterized by comprising an ion conductor with an ortho-composition, and Lil. The above-mentioned sulfide solid electrolyte material is glass, so that Lil ordinarily exists in a state of being incorporated into the structure of an ion conductor with an ortho-composition. Therefore, it is preferable that the above-mentioned sulfide solid electrolyte material does not have a peak of Lil in XRD measurement using a CuKa ray. The peak of Lil ordinarily appears at 2Θ = 26°, 30°, 43° and 51°. The content of the above-mentioned Lil is not particularly limited if it is a ratio for allowing glass with a glass transition point; for example, preferably 34 mol% or less, more preferably 30 mol% or less. On the other hand, the content of the above-mentioned Lil is, for example, preferably 1 mol% or more, more preferably 5 mol% or more, and far more preferably 10 mol% or more. The reason therefor is that too small content of the Lil brings a possibility of not contributing to the improvement of Li ion conductivity.
[0036]
The above-mentioned ion conductor has an
ortho-composition. Here, ortho generally signifies oxo acid which is the highest in degree of hydration among oxo acids
obtained by hydrating the same oxide. In the first embodiment, a crystal composition to which Li2S (and Li20) is added most among sulfides is called an ortho-composition. For example, L13PS4 corresponds to an ortho-composition in the Li2S-P2S5 system, L13AIS3 corresponds to an ortho-composition in the Li2S-Al2S3 system, Li3BS3 corresponds to an ortho-composition in the Li2S-B2S3 system, Li4SiS4 corresponds to an ortho-composition in the Li2S-SiS2 system, and Li4GeS4 corresponds to an ortho-composition in the Li2S-GeS2 system. In the first embodiment, part of sulfur (S) in the above-mentioned ortho-composition may be substituted with oxygen (0) .
[0037]
Also, in the first embodiment, "having an
ortho-composition" means including not merely a strict ortho-composition but also a composition in the neighborhood thereof. Specifically, "having an ortho-composition" signifies that an anion structure in an ortho-composition (PS4 3" structure, SiS4 4~ structure, GeS4 4~ structure, A1S3 3" structure and BS3 3" structure ) is the main component . The ratio of an anion structure in an ortho-composition is preferably 60 mol% or more, more preferably 70 mol% or more, far more preferably 80 mol% or more, and particularly preferably 90 mo1% or more with respect to all anion structures in the ion conductor. The ratio of an anion structure in an ortho-composition may be determined by Raman spectroscopy, NMR, XPS or the like.
[0038]
The composition of the above-mentioned ion conductor is
not particularly limited, preferably containing Li, X (X is P, Si, Ge, Al or B) , and S. The reason therefor is to allow a sulfide solid electrolyte material with high Li ion conductivity. The above-mentioned X is particularly preferably P. Also, the above-mentioned X may contain the above-mentioned element by two kinds or more.
[0039]
The sulfide solid electrolyte material of the first embodiment is preferably obtained by amorphizing a raw material composition containing Li2S, sulfide of X (X is P, Si, Ge, Al or B) , and Lil .
[0040]
Li2S contained in a raw material composition preferably has fewer impurities. The reason therefor is to allow a side reaction to be restrained. Examples of a synthesis method for Li2S include a method described in Japanese Patent Application Publication No. H07-330312. In addition, Li2S is preferably purified by using a method described in WO2005/040039. On the other hand, examples of sulfide of the above-mentioned X contained in a raw material composition include P2S3, P2S5, SiS2, GeS2, AI2S3 and B2S3.
[0041]
It is preferable that the above-mentioned sulfide solid electrolyte material does not substantially contain Li2S. The reason therefor is to allow a sulfide solid electrolyte material with less hydrogen sulfide generation amount. Li2S reacts with water to generate hydrogen sulfide . For example, a larger ratio
of Li2S contained in a raw material composition survives Li2S more easily. The phrase "does not substantially contain Li2S" may be confirmed by X-ray diffraction. Specifically, in the case of not having a peak of Li2S (2Θ = 27.0°, 31.2°, 44.8° and 53.1°) , "does not substantially contain Li2S" may be determined .
[0042]
It is preferable that the above-mentioned sulfide solid electrolyte material does not substantially contain
cross-linking sulfur. The reason therefor is to allow a sulfide solid electrolyte material with less hydrogen sulfide generation amount. The term "cross-linking sulfur" signifies
cross-linking sulfur in a compound obtained by a reaction of Li2S and sulfide of the above-mentioned X. For example, cross-linking sulfur with an S3P-S-PS3 structure obtained by a reaction of Li2S and P2S5 corresponds thereto. Such cross-linking sulfur reacts easily with water to easily generate hydrogen sulfide . In addition, "does not substantially contain cross-linking sulfur" may be confirmed by measuring Raman spectroscopy. For example, in the case of an Li2S-P2S5-based sulfide solid electrolyte material, a peak of an S3P-S-PS3 structure ordinarily appears at 402 cm"1. Therefore, it is preferable that this peak is not detected. A peak of a PS4 3~ structure ordinarily appears at 417 cm-1. Inthe first embodiment , the intensity I402 at 402 cm"1 is preferably smaller than the intensity Ι4π at 417 cm"1. More specifically, the intensity I402 is, for example, preferably 70% or less, more preferably 50% or less, and far more preferably 35% or less with respect to
the intensity I41 . Also, with regard to a sulfide solid electrolyte material except Li2S-P2S5-based, "does not substantially contain cross-linking sulfur" may be determined by specifying a unit containing cross-linking sulfur to measure a peak of the unit.
[0043]
Also, in the case of an Li2S-P2S5-based sulfide solid electrolyte material, the ratio of Li2S and P2S5 for allowing an ortho-composition is Li2S : P2S5 = 75 : 25 on a molar basis. The case of an Li2S-Al2S3-based sulfide solid electrolyte material and the case of an Li2S-B2S3-based sulfide solid electrolyte material are similar thereto. On the other hand, in the case of an Li2S-SiS2-based sulfide solid electrolyte material, the ratio of Li2S and SiS2 for allowing an ortho-composition is Li2S : SiS2 = 66.7 : 33.3 on a molar basis . The case of an Li2S-GeS2-based sulfide solid electrolyte material is similar thereto.
[0044]
In the case where the above-mentioned raw material composition contains Li2S and P2S5, the ratio of Li2S to the total of Li2S and P2S5 is preferably within a range of 70 mol% to 80 mol%, more preferably within a range of 72 mol% to 78 mol%, and far more preferably within a range of 74 mol% to 76 mol%. The case where the above-mentioned rawmaterial composition contains Li2S and Al2S3 and the case where the above-mentioned raw material composition contains Li2S and B2S3 are similar thereto. On the other hand, in the case where the above-mentioned raw material composition contains Li2S and SiS2, the ratio of Li2S to the total
of Li2S and SiS2 is preferably within a range of 62.5 mol% to 70.9 mol% , more preferably within a range of 63 mol% to 70 mol%, and far more preferably within a range of 64 mol% to 68 mol%. The case where the above-mentioned raw material composition contains Li2S and GeS2 is similar thereto.
[0045]
Examples of the shape of a sulfide solid electrolyte material of the first embodiment include a particulate. The average particle diameter of a particulate sulfide solid electrolyte material is , for example, preferably within a range
The above-mentioned sulfide solidelectrolyte material is preferably high in Li ion conductivity, and Li ion conductivity at normal temperature is, for example, preferably 1 x 10"4 S/cm or more, and more preferably 1 x 10"3 S/cm or more.
[0046]
A sulfide solid electrolyte material of the first embodiment may be used for optional uses in which Li ion conductivity is required. Above all, the above-mentioned sulfide solid electrolyte material is preferably used for a battery. In addition, in the case where the above-mentioned sulfide solid electrolyte material is used for a battery, it may be used for a cathode active material layer (a cathode body) , an anode active material layer (an anode body) or an electrolyte layer .
[0047]
(2) Producing method for sulfide solid electrolyte material Next, a producing method for a sulfide solid electrolyte
material of the first embodiment is described. The producing method for a sulfide solid electrolyte material of the first embodiment is not particularly limited if it is a method for obtaining the above-mentioned sulfide solid electrolyte material. Examples of the producing method for the
above-mentioned sulfide solid electrolyte material include a producing method having synthesis step of amorphizing a raw material composition containing Li2S, sulfide of X (X is P, Si, Ge, Al or B) , and Lil by wet-type mechanical milling.
[0048]
The mechanical milling is not particularly limited if it is a method for mixing a raw material composition while allowing mechanical energy thereto; examples thereof include ball mill, vibrating mill, turbo mill, mechano-fusion and disk mill, and ball mill is preferable among them and planetary ball mill is particularly preferable . The reason therefor is to efficiently obtain a desired sulfide solid electrolyte material.
[0049]
Various kinds of the conditions of the mechanical milling are determined so as to obtain a desired sulfide solid electrolyte material. Forexample, in the case of using planetary ball mill , a raw material composition and a grinding ball are added and treated at predetermined number of revolutions and time. Generally, larger number of revolutions brings higher production rate of a sulfide solid electrolyte material , and longer treating time brings higher conversion ratio of a rawmaterial composition into a sulfide solid electrolyte material. The number of
weighing table revolutions in performing planetary ball mill is preferably within a range of 200 rpm to 500 rpm, for example, and within a range of 250 rpm to 400 rpm, above all . The treating time in performing planetary ball mill is preferably within a range of 1 hour to 100 hours, for example, and within a range of 1 hour to 50 hours, above all.
[0050]
Liquid used for wet-type mechanical milling is preferably such as to have properties for not generating hydrogen sulfide ina reactionwiththe above-mentioned raw material composition . Hydrogen sulfide is generated in such a manner that a proton dissociated from a molecule of the liquid reacts with a raw material composition and a sulfide solid electrolyte material. Therefore, the above-mentioned liquid preferably has such aprotic properties as not to generate hydrogen sulfide.
Ordinarily, aprotic liquid may be roughly divided into polar aprotic liquid and nonpolar aprotic liquid.
[0051]
The polar aprotic liquid is not particularly limited; examples thereof include ketones such as acetone; nitriles such as acetonitrile ; amides such as N, N-dimethylformamide (DMF); and sulfoxides such as dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO).
[0052]
Examples of the nonpolar aprotic liquid include alkane which is liquid at normal temperature (25°C) . The
above-mentioned alkane may be chain alkane or cyclic alkane. The carbon number of the above-mentioned chain alkane is
preferably 5 or more, for example. On the other hand, the upper limit of the carbon number of the above-mentioned chain alkane is not particularly limited if it is liquid at normal temperature . Specific examples of the above-mentioned chain alkane include pentane, hexane, heptane, octane, nonane, decane, undecane, dodecane and paraffin. The above-mentioned chain alkane may have a branch. On the other hand, specific examples of the above-mentioned cyclic alkane include cyclopentane ,
cyclohexane, cycloheptane , cyclooctane and cycloparaffin .
[0053]
Other examples of the nonpolar aprotic liquid include aromatic hydrocarbons such as benzene , toluene and xylene ; chain ethers such as diethyl ether and dimethyl ether; cyclic ethers such as tetrahydrofuran; alkyl ha1 ides such as chloroform, methyl chloride and methylene chloride; esters such as ethyl acetate; and fluorine-based compounds such as benzene fluoride, heptane fluoride, 2 , 3-dihydroperfluoropentane and
1 , 1 , 2 , 2 , 3 , 3 , -heptafluorocyclopentane . The added amount of the above-mentioned liquid is not particularly limited and may be such amount as to obtain a desired sulfide solid electrolyte material .
[0054]
2. Second embodiment
Next, a second embodiment of a sulfide solid electrolyte material of the present invention is described. The sulfide solid electrolyte material of the second embodiment is a sulfide solid electrolyte material comprising an ion conductor with an
ortho-composition, and Lil, characterized in that the above-mentioned ion conductor contains oxygen (0) .
[0055]
The second embodiment allows a sulfide solid electrolyte material with high Li ion conductivity by reason of comprising Lil (Lil component) to become rich in Li. In addition, the sulfide solid electrolyte material of the second embodiment may restrain chemical stability from deteriorating due to the influence of Lil for the reason that the above-mentioned ion conductor contains oxygen (0) . Also, the second embodiment allows a sulfide solid electrolyte material which has resistance to deterioration ( such as oxidative decomposition) forthereason that the above-mentioned ion conductor has an ortho-composition . The sulfide solid electrolyte material of the second embodiment differs from the above-mentioned sulfide solid electrolyte material of the first embodiment, and may be glass, an amorphous substance except glass, a crystalline substance or a substance which is completely crystalline.
[0056]
(1) Sulfide solid electrolyte material
The sulfide solid electrolyte material of the second embodiment is greatly characterized in that the ion conductor with an ortho-composition contains oxygen (0) . Ordinarily, 0 contained in the above-mentioned ion conductor exists in a position of S in an anion structure (such as PS4 3~ structure) of an ortho-composition consisting essentially of S. Specific examples thereof include PS303", PS202 3~ and PS03 3~ . It may be
confirmed by NMR, Raman spect oscopy, XPS or the like that the above-mentioned ion conductor contains 0. In particular, in the case where the ion conductor contains P, it is preferable to measure by 31P MAS NMR. Oxygen in the above-mentioned ion conductor is preferably derived from an oxygen-containing compound and more preferably derived from Li20. The reason therefor is to allow a sulfide solid electrolyte material with high chemical stability.
[0057]
The sulfide solid electrolyte material of the second embodiment is characterized by comprising an ion conductor with an ortho-composition, and Lil. In the second embodiment, at least part of Lil preferably exists in a state of being incorporated into the structure of an ion conductor with an ortho-composition. The content of the above-mentioned Lil is not particularly limited; for example, preferably within a range of 1 mol% to 60 mol%, more preferably within a range of 5 mol% to 50 mol%, and far more preferably within a range of 10 mol% to 40 mol%.
[0058]
The above-mentioned ion conductor has an
ortho-composition. As described above, Li3PS4 corresponds to an ortho-composition in the Li2S-P2S5 system, L13AIS3 corresponds to an ortho-composition in the L12S-AI2S3 system, Li3BS3 corresponds to an ortho-composition in the L12S-B2S3 system, Li SiS4 corresponds to an ortho-composition in the Li2S-SiS2 system, and Li4GeS corresponds to an ortho-composition in the
Li2S-GeS2 system. In the second embodiment, part of sulfur (S) in the above-mentioned ortho-composition is substituted with oxygen (0) .
[0059]
The composition of the above-mentioned ion conductor is not particularly limited, preferably containing Li, X (X is P, Si, Ge, Al or B) , S and 0. The reason therefor is to allow a sulfide solid electrolyte material with high Li ion conductivity . The above-mentioned X is particularly preferably P.
[0060]
The sulfide solid electrolyte material of the second embodiment is preferably obtained by using a raw material composition containing Li2S, Li20, sulfide of X (X is P, Si, Ge, Al or B) , and Lil. Li2S and sulfide of X contained in a raw material composition are as described above.
[0061]
Also, in the case of an Li2S-Li20-P2S5-based sulfide solid electrolytematerial, the ratioof Li2S, Li20 and P2S5 for allowing an ortho-composition is (Li2S + Li20) : P2S5 = 75 : 25 on a molar basis. The case of an Li2S-Li20-Al2S3-based sulfide solid electrolyte material and the case of an Li2S-Li20-B2S3-based sulfide solid electrolyte material are similar thereto. On the other hand, in the case of an Li2S-Li20-SiS2-based sulfide solid electrolytematerial, the ratio of Li2S, Li20 and SiS2 for allowing an ortho-composition is (Li2S + Li20) : SiS2 = 66.7 : 33.3 on a molar basis . The case of an Li2S-Li20-GeS2-based sulfide solid electrolyte material is similar thereto.
[0062]
In the case where the above-mentioned raw material composition contains Li2S, Li20 and P2S5, the ratio of Li2S and Li20 to the total of Li2S, Li20 and P2S5 is preferably within a range of 70 mol% to 80 mol%, more preferably within a range of 72 mol% to 78 moll, and far more preferably within a range of 74 mol% to 76 mol%. The case where the above-mentioned raw material composition contains Li2S, Li20 and AI2S3 and the case where the above-mentioned rawmaterial composition contains Li2S, Li20 and B2S3 are similar thereto. On the other hand, in the case where the above-mentioned rawmaterial composition contains Li2S, Li20 and SiS2, the ratio of Li2S and Li20 to the total of Li2S, Li20 and SiS2 is preferably within a range of 62.5 mol% to 70.9 mol%, more preferably within a range of 63 mol% to 70 moll, and far more preferably within a range of 64 moll to 68 moll. The case where the above-mentioned raw material composition contains Li2S, Li20 and GeS2 is similar thereto.
[0063]
The ratio of Li20 to the total of Li2S and Li20 is, for example, preferably within a range of 1 moll to 40 moll, more preferably within a range of 4 moll to 27 moll. The reason therefor is that too small ratio of the Li20 brings a possibility of not contributing to the improvement of chemical stability of a sulfide solid electrolyte material, and too high ratio of the Li20 brings a possibility of greatly deteriorating Li ion conductivity .
[0064]
The content of Li20 in a sulfide solid electrolyte material of the second embodiment is, for example, preferably within a range of 1 mol% to 30 mol%, and more preferably within a range of 3 mol% to 20 mol%.
[0065]
Other items with regard to a sulfide solid electrolyte material of the second embodiment are the same as the items described in the above-mentioned "1. First embodiment";
therefore, the description will not be repeated here.
[0066]
(2) Producing method for sulfide solid electrolyte material Next, a producing method for a sulfide solid electrolyte material of the second embodiment is described. The producing method for a sulfide solid electrolyte material of the second embodiment is not particularly limited if it is a method for obtaining the above-mentioned sulfide solid electrolyte material. Examples of the producing method for the
above-mentioned sulfide solid electrolyte material include a producing method having synthesis step of amorphizing a raw material composition containing Li2S, Li20, sulfide of X (X is P, Si, Ge, Al or B) , and Lil.
[0067]
Examples of a method for amorphizing include mechanical milling andmeIt extraction, andmechanical milling is preferable among them. The reason therefor is that treatment at normal temperature can be performed to intend the simplification of production processes . The mechanical milling may be a dry-type
mechanical milling or a wet-type mechanical milling, but yet the latter is preferable. The reason therefor is that a raw material composition may be prevented from anchoring on a wall surface ofa vessel to obtain a sulfide solid electrolyte material with higher amorphous nature.
[0068]
Heat-treating step of heat-treating the sulfide solid electrolyte material obtained in the synthesis step may be performed in the above-mentioned producing method. The reason therefor is to obtain a crystalline sulfide solid electrolyte material. The heating temperature is preferably a temperature equal to or higher than crystallizing temperature.
[0069]
On the other hand, other examples of the above-mentioned producing method for a sulfide solid electrolyte material include a producing method comprising a first amorphizing step of amorphizing a raw material composition containing Li2S, sulfide of X (X is P, Si, Ge, Al or B) and Lil, and a second amorphizing step of amorphizing the material obtained by the above-mentioned first amorphizing step while adding Li20 thereto. The addition of L12O in the second amorphizing step allows chemical stability of the sulfide solid electrolyte material to be efficiently improved. In the above-mentioned producing method, Lil is added in the first amorphizing step and Lil may be added in the second amorphizing step. In addition, the heat-treating step of heat-treating the sulfide solid electrolyte material obtained in the second amorphizing step may be performed in the
T JP2011/066174
above-mentioned producing method.

B. Lithium solid state battery
Next, a lithium solid state battery of the present invention is described. The lithium solid state battery of the present invention may be roughly divided into two embodiments. The lithium solid state battery of the present invention is hereinafter described while divided into a first embodiment and a second embodiment.
[0071]
1. First embodiment
The lithium solid state battery of the first embodiment is a lithium solid state battery comprising a cathode active material layer containing a cathode active material, an anode active material layer containing an anode active material, and a solid electrolyte layer formed between the cathode active material layer and the anode active material layer, characterized in that the cathode active material layer contains the cathode active material with an electric potential of 2.8 V (vs Li) or more and a sulfide solid electrolyte material comprising an ion conductor with an ortho-composition and Lil.
[0072]
The first embodiment allows a high-output lithium solid state battery for the reason that the cathode active material layer contains a sulfide solid electrolyte material comprising Lil (Lil component). Conventionally, Lil is conceived to decompose in the vicinity of 2.8 V, so that a sulfide solid
electrolyte material comprising Lil has not been used for the cathode active material layer. For example, in page 270 of Non Patent Literature 3, it is described that LiI-Li2S-P2S5 may not be combined with a cathode active material such as LiCo02. Also, in paragraphs [0028] and [0029] of Patent Literature 2, it is described that electric potential at which an oxidation reaction of Lil is caused is so low as to be incapable of being combined with a cathode active material. In addition, according to the Nernst equation, Lil is subject to an oxidation reaction at 2.8 V.
E = AUelec / yF = 270.29 x 103 / 1 x 96450 = 2.8 V (vs Li) [0073]
However, as described in (Verification of oxidative decomposition) of [Evaluation 1 ] of the after-mentioned examples , it was confirmed that Lil did not decompose unexpectedly even though a sulfide solid electrolyte material comprising Lil was contained in the cathode active material layer. The reason therefor is still unclear and it is conceived that Lil is stabilized by an interaction with the above-mentioned ion conductor .

[0084]

Next, a solid electrolyte layer in the first embodiment is described. The solid electrolyte layer in the first embodiment is a layer formed between the cathode active material layer and the anode active material layer, and a layer composed of a solid electrolyte material. The solid electrolyte material contained in the solid electrolyte layer is not particularly limited if it has Li ion conductivity.
[0085]
In the first embodiment, a solid electrolyte material contained in the solid electrolyte layer is preferably the sulfide solid electrolyte material described in the
above-mentioned "(1) Cathode active material layer (i) Sulfide solid electrolyte material". The reason therefor is to allow a high-output battery.

[0090]
2. Second embodiment
Next, a second embodiment of a lithium solid state battery of the present invention is described. The lithium solid state battery of the second embodiment is a lithium solid state battery comprising a cathode active material layer containing a cathode active material, an anode active material layer containing an anode active material, and a solid electrolyte layer formed between the cathode active material layer and the anode active material layer, characterized in that at least one of the cathode active material layer, the anode active material layer and the solid electrolyte layer contains the above-mentioned sulfide solid electrolyte material.
[0091]

[0093]
In the second embodiment, at least the cathode active material layer 1 preferably contains the above-mentioned sulfide solid electrolyte material.

[0095]
The present invention is described more specifically while showing examples hereinafter.
[0096]
[Example 1-1]
Lithium sulfide (Li S), diphosphorus pentasulfide (P2S5) and lithium iodide (Lil) were used as a starting material . Next, Li2S and P2S5 were weighed in a glove box under an Ar atmosphere (a dew point of -70°C) so as to become a molar ratio of 75Li2S-25P2S5 (Li3PS4, ortho-composition). Next, Lil was weighed so as to become 10 mol%. Projected into a vessel of planetary ball mill (45 cc, made of Zr02) was 2 g of this mixture, dehydrated heptane (a moisture amount of 30 ppm orless, 4 g) was proj ected thereinto, andZr02ball (<j) = 5mm, 53g) was proj ected thereinto to completely seal the vessel (an Ar atmosphere) . This vessel was mounted on a planetary ball milling machine ( P7™ manufactured by Fritsch
Japan Co., Ltd.) to perform mechanical milling of 1-hour treatment and 15-minute intermission 40 times at the number of weighing table revolutions of 500 rpm. Thereafter, the obtained sample was dried on a hotplate so as to remove heptane to obtain a sulfide solid electrolyte material. The composition of the obtained sulfide solid electrolyte material was 10LiI-90 (0.75Li2S-0.25P2S5) .
[0097]
[Example 1-2]
A sulfide solid electrolyte material was obtained in the same manner as Example 1-1 except for modifying the ratio of Lil into 30 mol%. The composition of the obtained sulfide solid electrolyte material was 30LH-70 (0.75Li2S-0.25P2S5) .
[0098]
[Comparative Examples 1-1, 1-2]
A sulfide solid electrolyte material was each obtained in the same manner as Example 1-1 except for modifying the ratio of Lil into 35 mol% and 40 mol% . The composition of the obtained sulfide solid electrolyte material was each 35LiI-65
(0.75Li2S-0.25P2S5) and 40LH-60 ( 0.75Li2S-0.25P2S5) .
[0099]
[Comparative Example 1-3]
An Li2S-P2S5-LiI-based amorphous material described in Non Patent Literature 1 was reproduced as strictly as possible. In Non Patent Literature 1, wet-type mechanical milling was not described at all and an ordinary dry-type mechanical milling was adopted. First, lithium sulfide (Li2S) , diphosphorus
pentasulfide (P2S5) and lithium iodide (Lil) were used as a starting material. Next, Li2S and P2S5 were weighed in a glove box under an Ar atmosphere (a dew point of -70°C) so as to become amolar ratio of 75Li2S-25P2S5 (Li3PS4, ortho-composition) . Next, Lil was weighed so as to become 30 moll . Projected into a vessel of planetary ball mill (45 cc, made of Zr02) was 1 g of this mixture, and Zr02 ball (φ = 10 mm, 10 pieces) was projected thereinto to completely seal the vessel ( an Ar atmosphere ) . This vessel was mounted on a planetary ball milling machine (P7™ manufactured by Fritsch Japan Co. , Ltd. ) to perform mechanical milling of 1-hour treatment and 15-minute intermission 40 times at the number of weighing table revolutions of 370 rpm. Thus, a sulfide solid electrolyte material was obtained. The composition of the obtained sulfide solid electrolyte material was 30LiI-70 (0.75Li2S-0.25P2S5) .
[0100]
[Evaluation 1]
(X-ray diffraction measurement)
X-ray diffraction (XRD) measurement using a CuKa ray was performed for the sulfide solid electrolyte material obtained in Examples 1-1, 1-2 and Comparative Examples 1-1 to 1-3. RINT Ultimalll™ manufactured by Rigaku Corporation was used for XRD measurement. The results are shown in FIGS .2A and 2B . As shown in FIG. 2A, in Examples 1-1, 1-2, a halo pattern was obtained and it was confirmed that the material was an amorphous substance . On the other hand, in Comparative Example 1-2, a peak of Lil was confirmed in the vicinity of 2Θ = 26° and the material was
not an amorphous substance. In Comparative Example 1-1, a peak of Lil was slightly observed in the vicinity of 2Θ = 26° and it was determined that the material was not an amorphous substance On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 2B, in Comparative Example 1-3, a halo pattern was obtained and it was confirmed that the material was an amorphous substance.
[0101]
(Differential thermal analysis)
Differential thermal analysis (DTA) was performed for the sulfide solid electrolyte material obtained in Example 1-2 and Comparative Example 1-3. TGA/SDTA851e™ manufactured by Mettler-Toledo International Inc. was used for DTA. The results are shown in FIG. 3. As shown in FIG. 3, in Example 1-2, glass transition was confirmed at a temperature of approximately 70°C. On the contrary, in Comparative Example 1-3, definite glass transition was not confirmed. The sulfide solid electrolyte material obtained in Example 1-2 was glass in the strict sense by reason of being an amorphous substance as shown in FIG. 2A and having a glass transition point as shown in FIG. 3. On the contrary, in Comparative Example 1-3, the material was an amorphous substance butnotglassinthestrictsense. In Example 1-2, it is conceived that the use of wet-type mechanical milling allows a raw material composition to be prevented from anchoring on a wall surface of the vessel and allows a sulfide solid electrolyte material with higher amorphous nature to be obtained . In comparison of crystallization behavior, Example 1-2 using wet-type mechanical milling was so sharper in peak than
Comparative Example 1-3 using dry-type mechanical milling that it was suggested that a molecular structure was more uniform.
[0102]
(Li ion conductivity measurement)
Li ion conductivity (room temperature) measurement by an alternating current impedance method was performed for the sulfide solid electrolyte material obtained in Examples 1-1, 1-2. Li ion conductivity measurement was as follows . A sample of 100 mg added to a support tube (made of Macor) was held by electrodes made of SKD . Thereafter, the sample was pressed into powder at a pressure of 4.3 ton/cm2 to perform impedance measurement while constraining the sample at 6 Ncm. Solartron 1260™wasusedforthe measurement and the measurement conditions were an impressed voltage of 5 mV and a measuring frequency band of 0.01 MHz to 1 MHz. The results are shown in FIG. 4. The results of FIG. 2 of Non Patent Literature 1 were also shown in FIG. 4. As shown in FIG. 4, it was confirmed that the sulfide solid electrolyte material obtained in Examples 1-1, 1-2 was higher in Li ion conductivity than the sulfide solid electrolyte material described in Non Patent Literature 1.
[0103]
(Raman spectroscopy measurement)
Raman spectroscopy measurement was performed for the sulfide solid electrolyte material obtained in Examples 1-1, 1-2. Nanofinder SOLAR T 11™ manufactured by Tokyo Instruments, Inc. was used for Raman spectroscopy measurement . The results are shown in FIG. 5. As shown in FIG. 5, it was confirmed that
the sulfide solid electrolyte material obtained in Examples 1-1, 1-2 had a peak of a PS4 3" structure in the vicinity of 420 cm"1. The material did not have a peak of a P2S7 4" structure containing cross-linking sulfur (in the vicinity of 410 cm"1) .
[0104]
(Verification of oxidative decomposition)
Cyclic voltammetry (CV) was performed for the sulfide solid electrolyte material (30LH-70 (0.75Li2S-0.25P2S5) ) obtained in Example 1-2. A cell composed of Li / sulfide solid electrolyte material / SUS was prepared as an evaluation cell. This evaluation cell was a cell with a bipolar constitution such that Li was used for a reference electrode and a counter electrode and SUS was used for a working electrode. The potential scanning speed was 5 mV/s and the potential range was -0.3 V to 10 V. The results are shown in FIG. 6. As shown in FIG. 6, oxidation-reduction current corresponding to dissolution precipitation of Li was confirmed but oxidative decomposition reaction of Lil was not confirmed. Thus, in the case where an ion conductor with an ortho-composition was doped with Lil, it was confirmed that oxidative decomposition of Lil was not caused.
[0105]
With regard to a conventional amorphous sulfide solid electrolyte material, a synthesis method was onlymelt extraction, sothatit was difficult to synthesize a sulfide solid electrolyte material with an ortho-composition. Through the view that decomposition potential of Lil is 2.7 V thermodynamically and bonding of an amorphous substance is firm, conventionally it
has been widely conceived that Lil may not be used for a battery using a cathode active material with high electric potential byreasonofbeingsubjecttooxidative decomposition . In recent years, mechanical milling is established as a new amorphizing method and a sulfide solid electrolyte material with an ortho-composition (an amorphous substance) maybe synthesized, but it has been widely conceived that Lil is subject to oxidative decomposition, sothatanionconductorwithan ortho-composition has not been doped with Lil. However, as described above, in the case where an ion conductor with an ortho-composition was doped with Lil, new knowledge that oxidative decomposition of Lil was not caused was found out.
[0106]
[Example 2]
The sulfide solid electrolyte material (30LiI-70
(0.75Li2S-0.25P2S5) ) obtained in Example 1-2 and LiCo02 (a cathode active material) coated with LiNb03 with a thickness of 7 nm were mixed at a weight ratio of cathode active material : sulfide solid electrolyte material = 7 : 3 to obtain a cathode composite. Next, the sulfide solid electrolyte material obtained in Example 1-2 and graphite (an anode active material ) were mixed at a weight ratio of anode active material : sulfide solid electrolyte material = 5 : 5 to obtain an anode composite. Next, the sulfide solid electrolyte material obtained in Example 1-2 was prepared as a solid electrolyte layer-forming material. Projected into a cylinder werel6.2 mg of the cathode composite, 65 mg of the solid electrolyte layer-forming material and 12 mg of the anode
composite to perform cold pressing at a pressure of 4.3 ton/cm2 and obtain a lithium solid state battery.
[0107]
[Comparative Example 2]
First, a sulfide solid electrolyte material was obtained in the same manner as Comparative Example 1-3 except for modifying the ratio of Li2S and P2S5 into a molar ratio of 67Li2S-33P2Ss (dry-type mechanical milling) . The composition of the obtained sulfide solid electrolyte material was 30LiI-70
(0.67Li2S-0.33P2S5) .
Next, a lithium solid state battery was obtained in the same manner as Example 2 except for modifying the cathode composite, the anode composite and the sulfide solid electrolyte material used for the solid electrolyte layer-forming material into the sulfide solid electrolyte material obtained above (30LiI-70 (0.67Li2S-0.33P2S5) ) .
[0108]
[Evaluation 2]
(Evaluation of charge-discharge cycle characteristics)
The evaluation of charge-discharge cycle characteristics was performed by using the lithium solid state battery obtained in Example 2 and Comparative Example 2. The constant-current charge-discharge measurement was performed in a range of 3 V to 4.1 V for the lithium solid state battery. The
charge-discharge rate was 0.1 C and the temperature was 25°C. The results are shown in FIG. 7. As shown in FIG. 7, it was confirmed that Example 2 was smaller in decrease of discharge
capacity than Comparative Example 2 even though charge and discharge were repeated. As Comparative Example 2, in the case of using the sulfide solid electrolyte material containing cross-linking sulfur, it is conceived that the decrease of discharge capacity became large for the reason that the sulfide solid electrolyte material was subject to oxidative
decomposition. On the contrary, as Example 2, in the case of using the sulfide solid electrolyte material containing no cross-linking sulfur, it is conceived that discharge capacity may maintain high value for the reason that the sulfide solid electrolyte material was not subject to oxidative decomposition .
[0109]
(Reaction resistance measurement)
Reaction resistance measurement was performed by using the lithium solid state batteries obtained in Example 2 and Comparative Example 2. After adjusting the electric potential of the lithium solid state batteries to 3.96 V, reaction resistance of the batteries was calculated by performing complex impedance measurement . Reaction resistance was calculated from a diameter of a circular arc of the impedance curve. The results are shown in FIG. 8. As shown in FIG. 8, it was confirmed that Example 2 was greatly smaller in reaction resistance than Comparative Example 2. As Comparative Example 2, in the case of using the sulfide solid electrolyte material containing cross-linking sulfur, it is conceived that reaction resistance became large for the reason that the sulfide solid electrolyte material was subject to oxidative decomposition. On the
contrary, as Example 2, in the case of using the sulfide solid electrolyte material containing no cross-linking sulfur, it is conceived that the increase of reaction resistance was not caused for the reason that the sulfide solid electrolyte material was not subject to oxidative decomposition. Through the results of the above-mentioned verification of oxidative decomposition, evaluation of charge-discharge cycle characteristics and reaction resistance measurement, it was suggested that decomposition of Lil concerned conventionally was not caused but decomposition of cross-linking sulfur was caused actually.
[0110]
[Example 3-1]
First, lithium sulfide (Li2S), lithium oxide (Li20) , diphosphorus pentasulfide (P2S5) and lithium iodide (Lil) were used as a starting material . Next, Li2S, P2S5 and Lil were weighed by predetermined amount in a glove box under an Ar atmosphere (a dew point of -70°C) . Projected into a vessel of planetary ball mill ( 45 cc, made of Zr02) was 2 g of this mixture, dehydrated heptane (a moisture amount of 30 ppm or less, 4 g) was projected thereinto, and Zr02 ball ( φ = 5 mm, 53 g) was projected thereinto to completely seal the vessel (an Ar atmosphere) . This vessel was mounted on a planetary ball milling machine ( P7™manufactured by Fritsch Japan Co., Ltd.) to perform mechanical milling of 1-hour treatment and 15-minute intermission 20 times at the number of weighing table revolutions of 370 rpm. Next, Li20 was added to the obtained sample by predetermined amount to perform mechanical milling again on the same conditions.
Thereafter, the obtained sample was dried on a hotplate so as to remove heptane to obtain a sulfide solid electrolyte material. The composition of the obtained sulfide solid electrolyte material was 30LiI-70 ( 0.69Li2S-0.06Li2O0.25P2S5 ) .
[0111]
[Examples 3-2 to 3-6]
A sulfide solid electrolyte material was each obtained in the same manner as Example 3-1 except for modifying the ratio of Lil into x = 10, 20, 40, 43, 60 in xLil-(lOO-x)
(0.69Li2S-0.06Li2O-0.25P2S5) .
[0112]
[Comparative Example 3-1]
A sulfide solid electrolyte material was obtained in the same manner as Example 3-1 except for weighing Li2S and P2Ss at a molar ratio of 75Li2S-25P2S5 (ortho-composition) without using Li20 and Lil. The composition of the obtained sulfide solid electrolyte material was 75Li2S-25P2S5.
[0113]
[Comparative Example 3-2]
First, lithium sulfide (Li2S) , lithium oxide (Li20) and diphosphorus pentasulfide (P2S5) were used as a starting material Next, Li2S and P2S5 were weighed in a glove box under an Ar atmosphere (a dew point of -70°C) so as to become a molar ratio of 69Li2S-25P2S5. Projected into a vessel of planetary ball mill (45 cc, made of Zr02) was 2 g of this mixture, dehydrated heptane (a moisture amount of 30 ppm orless, 4 g) was proj ected thereinto, andZr02 all (<j)=5mm, 53 g) was proj ected thereinto to completely
seal the vessel (an Ar atmosphere) . This vessel was mounted on a planetary ball milling machine ( P7™ manufactured by Fritsch Japan Co., Ltd.) to perform mechanical milling of 1-hour treatment and 15-minute intermission 20 times at the number of weighing table revolutions of 500 rpm. Li20 was added to the obtained sample so as to become 6 mol% to perform mechanical milling again on the same conditions. Thereafter, the obtained sample was dried on a hotplate so as to remove heptane to obtain a sulfide solid electrolyte material. The composition of the obtained sulfide solid electrolyte material was
69Li2S-6Li20-25P2S5.
[0114]
[Example 4]
A lithium solid state battery was obtained in the same manner as Example 2 except for modifying the cathode composite, the anode composite and the sulfide solid electrolyte material used for the solid electrolyte layer-forming material into the sulfide solid electrolyte material obtained in Example 3-1 (30LiI-70 (0.69Li2S-0.06Li2O-0.25P2S5) ) .
[0115]
[Comparative Examples 4-1, 4-2]
A lithium solid state battery was each obtained in the same manner as Example 4 except for modifying the cathode composite, the anode composite and the sulfide solid electrolyte material used for the solid electrolyte layer-forming material into the sulfide solid electrolyte material obtained in Comparative Example 3-1 (75Li2S-25P2S5) and the sulfide solid
electrolyte material obtained in Comparative Example 3-2 (69Li2S-6Li2025P2S5) .
[0116]
[Reference Example 4]
A lithium solid state battery was obtained in the same manner as Example 4 except for modifying the cathode composite, the anode composite and the sulfide solid electrolyte material used for the solid electrolyte layer-forming material into the sulfide solid electrolyte material obtained in Example 1-2 (30LH-70 (0.75Li2S-0.25P2S5) ) .
[0117]
[Evaluation 3]
(Li ion conductivity measurement)
Li ion conductivity (room temperature) measurement by an alternating current impedance method was performed for the sulfide solid electrolyte material obtained in Examples 3-1 to 3-6. The measuring method is the same as the above . The results are shown in FIG. 9. For reference, the results of the sulfide solid electrolyte material obtained in Examples 1-1, 1-2 are also shown in FIG. 9. As shown in FIG. 9, it was confirmed that Examples 3-1 to 3-6 in which both Lil and Li20 were doped were higher in Li ion conductivity than Examples 1-1, 1-2 in which only Lil was doped. The reason why Li ion conductivity was improved by doping both Lil and Li20 is still unclear and is conceived to be a possibility of causing mixed anion effect (the effect of improving conductivity by mixing anions of different kinds ) .
[0118]
(Reaction resistance measurement)
Reaction resistance measurement was performed by using the lithium solid state batteries obtained in Example 4, Comparative Examples 4-1, 4-2 and Reference Example 4. The method for reaction resistance measurement is the same as the above-mentioned contents. The results are shown in FIG. 10. As shown in FIG. 10, in Reference Example 4, reaction resistance increased somewhat as compared with Comparative Example 4-1. The reason therefor is conceived to be a possibility that chemical stability of the sulfide solid electrolyte material deteriorated due to the doping ofLil in consideration of doping Lil in Reference Example 4 as compared with Comparative Example 4-1. In Comparative Example 4-2, reaction resistance increased as compared with Comparative Example 4-1. The reason therefor is conceived to be a possibility that Li ion conductivity of the sulfide solid electrolytematerial deteriorated due to the doping of Li20 in consideration of doping Li20 in Comparative Example 4-2.
[0119]
On the contrary, in Example 4, reaction resistance decreased greatly as compared with Comparative Example 4-1. This is considered as follows. That is to say, the reason therefor is conceived to be that the doping of Lil improved Li ion conductivity of the sulfide solid electrolyte material to restrain the defect of the doping of Li20 (the deterioration of Li ion conductivity) , and the doping of Li20 improved chemical
stability of the sulfide solid electrolyte material to restrain the defect of the doping of Lil (the deterioration of chemical stability) . That is, it is conceived that the doping of both Lil and Li2O caused the synergistic effect of complementing mutual defects .
